Steven Hansen Speaks at the CATS Roundtable Radio Show

Interview Highlights

Speaks about the recent U.S. District Court decision in Arizona that upheld a Phoenix ordinance that banned the sale of puppy mill dogs from any store.

Due to the above decision, “all dogs sold in pet shops in Phoenix must originate from an animal shelter or non-profit humane society or a non-profit rescue group…they can not come from puppy mills”.

The Phoenix law will help “stop the terrible abuse of dogs raised in a puppy mill setting”.
